Well being a student, and I quote this as it is the only frame of reference I have at this moment, but being a student in the last year of my degree meant that things were always changing. Test dates were scheduled and rescheduled such that change was almost always in the agenda. So obviously to survive and make it one had to be adaptable as the test you thought was later on in the evening is actually going to be in the next hour.

Fantastic question! I get excited about a job position especially when it is aligned with my educational background and skills as well as my values in term of innovation, excellence and a passion for animals. So there is no doubt in my mind that this would be a great fit. One of my key strengths is responsibility which means that whenever I take on a task I invest wholeheartedly to see it to fruition. As a result I have been entrusted with leadership roles, from being a class representative in high school two years in a row to being in the leadership of a church cell group to being recently nominated as a candidate for the SASAS north branch committee. I am not only resilient and adaptable but possess great interpersonal skills that have helped me develop great relationships with some of the most influential people within the industry.
